A car travels 50 meters at a speed of 25 m/s.  How long did it take for the car to go 50 meters

1. ### Break Down the Problem

We need to find the time it takes for a car to travel a distance of 50 meters while moving at a constant speed of 25 m/s. We will use the formula that relates distance, speed, and time.

2. ### Relevant Concepts

The formula to determine time ($t$) when distance ($d$) and speed ($v$) are known is given by: $t = \frac{d}{v}$

3. ### Analysis and Detail

Substituting the known values into the formula:

• Distance ($d$) = 50 meters
• Speed ($v$) = 25 m/s

Now, we substitute these values into the formula: $t = \frac{50 \, \text{meters}}{25 \, \text{m/s}}$

4. ### Verify and Summarize

Carrying out the calculation: $t = \frac{50}{25} = 2 \, \text{seconds}$ Thus, it takes 2 seconds for the car to travel 50 meters at a speed of 25 m/s.

Final Answer

The car took 2 seconds to travel 50 meters.
